Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD)

U.S. Should Be Brought to Human Rights Court

    Pyongyang, February 23 (KCNA) -- The world progressives are vehemently condemning the U.S. imperialists' infringement upon the sovereign rights of other countries and their human rights abuses and strongly calling for bringing the U.S., the worst human rights abuser, to the international human rights court and punishing it. Rodong Sinmun Thursday observes this in a signed commentary. It goes on:
    The U.S. has openly committed armed invasion of other countries and massacre of their people under the pretext of so-called "anti-terrorism" and "defence of human rights". This is evidenced by the Balkan war, the Afghan war and the Iraqi war of aggression.
    The above-said wars ignited by the U.S. imperialists under the plea of "the guarantee of freedom and democracy" and "anti-terrorism" brought nothing but indiscriminate destruction and horrible genocide.
    However, the U.S. has described all this as actions for "freedom and democracy". Lurking behind this is a sinister intention of the U.S. to justify its human rights abuses and escalate its acts of aggression against the independent countries in the future. Drawing attention to the barbarous abuses of the prisoners in the U.S. navy base in Guantanamo, the commentary describes this as a typical example of the most cruel treatment and torture perpetrated by the U.S. against human beings, while styling itself a "protector of human rights."
    It further says:
    The U.S. has resorted to all manner of evil deeds against Cuban patriots since it illegally put them into custody. Moreover, it has protected the ill-famed international terrorist Posada Carriles and projected him as an "anti-terror champion." This behavior of the U.S. clearly shows how nonsensical and hypocritical its much publicized "defence of human rights" and "anti-terrorism" are. If the U.S truly stands against terrorism, it should not only handle the case of Carriles as required by international law but extradite him to Cuba to be judged by its people as demanded by the Cuban government. But the U.S. has defiantly protected him. The U.S. touted "anti-terrorism" and "protection of human rights" are nothing but outcries for aggression and human rights abuses.
    The world is becoming increasingly vigilant against the U.S. talk about "anti-terrorism" and "protection of human rights". A resolute struggle against the U.S. "anti-terrorism war" and human rights abuses alone can guarantee sovereign rights and human rights.
